Investigator-Initiated Studies

CSL Behring is committed to saving lives and improving the quality of life for people with rare and serious diseases worldwide. This commitment is reflected in the support for investigator-initiated studies (IIS) that advance medical and scientific knowledge of CSL Behring products and the diseases they are designed to treat. CSL Behring also supports innovative clinical and basic science studies that address important medical and scientific questions related to our therapeutic areas of interest.

Educational Grants

Educational Grants are the cornerstone of supporting our patients by providing funds for the continuing medical education of healthcare professionals. Grants are issued in support of programs that include, but are not limited to, medical seminars and symposia, grand rounds, sessions at physician specialty meetings and conventions, and programs for which continuing medical education credits are approved.

About our Patient Advocacy

No one knows their condition and the barriers they face better than our patients, and we believe in enabling them to be their own best advocates for better care. We offer a unique advocacy program that helps at the patient organization level.

LEAD Grants

These $10,000 grants are intended to help promote and develop advocacy development on the local level by helping further an existing advocacy initiative; providing assistance in developing a new initiative; or building a grassroots database, for example. LEAD Grants enable local organizations to implement special advocacy initiatives.
